The Impact of Green Taxiing Systems Using on Airport

Abstract

The aircraft’s engine isn’t designed for taxiing on the ground. This article describes the green taxiing systems and compares their advantages and disadvantages. Setting the Beijing Capital International Airport as an example, the taxiing fuel consumption and pollutant emissions calculation model were established. This paper calculates the total fuel consumption and pollutant emissions of the different modes in one year. The results show that the green taxiing systems can significantly reduce fuel consumption and HC, CO, CO2, NOx emissions. TaxiBot is better for reducing fuel consumption and NOx emissions.
